&CELL: SOLIDS: CYLINDER
The location of the centre of gravity of the cylinder.
[No default.]
The radius of the cylinder.
[No default.]
Half the overall length of the cylinder, as measured
along the central axis.
[No default.]
The direction vector of the central axis of the cylinder.
The normalisation of the vector is not used. Zero-norm
vectors are not acceptable.
[By default, the central axis is aligned with the z-axis.]
Specifies whether the cylinder is made of conducting or from
dielectric material. To differentiate the solids in drawings,
one has the option to choose between various representations:

[Default: CONDUCTOR]
A one character identification of the solid.
This label serves the same purpose as the wire code for wires,
namely the selection of the solid as a place where signals can
be measured, around which isochrones are drawn etc.
[Default: C]
The cylinder is drawn as a polygon with a finite number of
panels. N specifies the number of panels on the cylinders
outer wall.
By default, N is chosen in function of the size occupied
by the cylinder in the drawing. If you decide to specify N
manually, then the same number will be used no matter how
large or small the cylinder appears in the drawing.
